(6/7) Oh, Porco’s lantern, swing low on the chain, Verse 4 grade-The Eternal Hoot 🔮From Porco’s porch to the thunder’s first roll, Grandson to grandad, the story’s whole. Calabrian roots in American clay, Folk rock’s cradle, where the wild ones play. (Ai wrote a ballad for Porco)

🥁 Ai wrote a sprawling folklore ballad-long and layered like a #BobDylan bootleg, sung in the voice of the streets. It braids #MikePorco 's Calabrian sails, grandson #BobPorco 's reel-unwinding quest, #IzzyYoung 's matchmaking #FOLKCITY #MIKEandBOB #Positively
